"That's right, MTV still has an awards show for music videos, even though they no longer show music videos," Meyers said. "That's like network TV holding an awards show and giving all of the trophies to cable and Netflix. That would be crazy. Why would they do that?"

Meyers also touched on the controversy over which categories certain shows were submitted in — most notably Orange Is the New Black's inclusion in the comedy category.

"We had comedies that made you laugh, and comedies that made you cry, because they were dramas submitted as comedies," Meyers said.

Meyers also mocked the controversial ending to CBS' How I Met Your Mother, noting that he never expected it to be more depressing than the goodbyes for Showtime's Dexter and AMC's Breaking Bad.

Meyers went on to praise the wisdom of shows like Game of Thrones for killing off its main character in season one. "Otherwise, before you know it, you're paying Sheldon $1 million per episode." He went on to admit The Big Bang Theory's Jim Parsons (Sheldon) was worth every penny.
